We took our financial and management consulting experience over hundreds of engagements, and created a unique engagement process that is superior to all others in terms of time, cost, communication, and client expectations. When implementing their corporate finance strategy, clients always have a clear understanding of where they are in the process, a basis for making good financial decisions, and an ability to start or stop the process with no on-going obligations. This gives our clients peace of mind, control, and unmatched value relative to any other advisor or consultant.

All we do is help growing private companies. We know their problems, and their alternatives, and have referenced clients to prove it. Further, unlike investment funds, banks, or investment bankers, Lantern is truly independent.  Our compensation is hourly based. We take no finder's fees from institutions, and do not seek or accept any equity (or warrant) compensation from our clients. Our goal is simply to serve the best interests of our clients - regardless of the size, amount, or type of financing sought.

As fee based consultants, our hourly rates are comparable to a middle market consulting, accounting, or law firm.  Then by combining those rates with our unique engagement process, we are able to get clients market feedback on their financing capabilities extremely fast which minimizes the client's risk and costs (both in terms of their time and cash expenditures).

Our methodology is very efficient, effective and proven.  We can very quickly package a company for market, confidentially solicit institutional interest, and negotiate proposals - clients can expect term sheets as soon as three to five weeks after engaging Lantern to manage the management buyout financing or capital raising process, and achieve financing in as little time as eight weeks. Lantern helps companies CONFIDENTIALLY explore financing alternatives in order to buyout shareholders, buyout a business partner, refinance company debt, raise growth capital, afford an owner an exit strategy, or execute a leveraged buyout.

Lantern Capital Advisors believes that a company’s best interest is to look for and secure multiple financing options in order to achieve the best financing terms.

What Our Clients Are Saying...

“I spent years doing research and speaking to advisors, investors, and banks.  I could find no support for the kind of management buyout transaction I wanted to do and believed could be done.  That is, until I stumbled upon Lantern Capital Advisors.  Just one phone call to Lantern and I heard the words, "it absolutely can be done!"  Lantern then helped me make it happen.  I will be forever grateful to Lantern Capital Advisors for their counsel, expertise, and hard work in leading us to our goal.”

“I spoke with multiple financial firms about the possibility of conducting a management buyout of a particular division.  Most of them seemed more interested in developing a long term relationship with the parent company than they were in securing the best possible deal for me.  I was then referred to Lantern Capital Advisors and things just clicked.  They listened carefully to my vision for the business and patiently explained every step of the management buyout process.  They met every expedited timeline and used their extensive network to find me the best possible investment group.  I don't know that a deal would have been completed without their guidance.  I would recommend Lantern Capital Advisors to anyone contemplating a similar transaction.”
